TLDR
The value of synteny across genomes is emphasized as a tool for deep time evolutionary studies of P450s in animals and there is evidence that macrosynteny may be useful in tracing the origin of animal CYP clans.

A P450-centric view of plant evolution.

TL;DR: Comparative analysis of the plant CYPomes provides information on the successive steps required for the evolution of land plants, and points to several cases of convergent evolution in plant metabolism.

Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases: an update on perspectives for synthetic application.

TL;DR: A short up-to-date overview of recent results on P450 engineering for technical applications including aspects of whole-cell biocatalysis with engineered recombinant enzymes and recently identified P450s with novel biotechnologically relevant properties are given.

The evolution and pathogenic mechanisms of the rice sheath blight pathogen

TL;DR: The draft genome sequence of the rice sheath blight disease pathogen, R. solani AG1 IA, is assembled using next-generation Illumina Genome Analyser sequencing technologies and reveals the exclusive expression patterns of the pathogenic determinants during host infection.

The Pfam protein families database

TL;DR: The definition and use of family-specific, manually curated gathering thresholds are explained and some of the features of domains of unknown function (also known as DUFs) are discussed, which constitute a rapidly growing class of families within Pfam.
Journal ArticleDOI

The amphioxus genome and the evolution of the chordate karyotype

TL;DR: Whole-genome comparisons illuminate the murky relationships among the three chordate groups (tunicates, lancelets and vertebrates), and allow not only reconstruction of the gene complement of the last common chordate ancestor but also partial reconstruction of its genomic organization.

Fungal secondary metabolism — from biochemistry to genomics

TL;DR: Questions are addressed, including which evolutionary pressures led to gene clustering, why closely related species produce different profiles of secondary metabolites, and whether fungal genomics will accelerate the discovery of new pharmacologically active natural products.
